A Augmented Arpeggio in Drop B Tuning

A Augmented Arpeggio in Drop B Tuning shows the same a augmented arpeggio chord tones across 6 strings tuned B F# B E G# C#. The tuning changes where the same chord tones sit across the fretboard.

Chord tones: A, C#, E#
Formula: 1 3 #5
Semitones: 0 4 8
Chord symbols: Aaug, A+
Tuning: B F# B E G# C#
Strings: 6
Open pitch range: B1 to C#4
24-fret range: B1 to C#6

Open strings and root positions

1 of the 6 open strings belong to A Augmented Arpeggio: string 1 C# (3). None of those open-string tones is the A root, so the root must be fretted on every string.

Low-string pattern

On the lowest B string, the first-octave arpeggio pattern falls at frets 2, 6, and 10, with the A root at fret 10. On the highest C# string, the first A is at fret 8.

Practice this tuning-specific layout

Play A Augmented Arpeggio on the low B string at frets 2, 6, and 10, saying each note name and degree aloud.
Build a phrase that lets C# on open string 1 ring, then connect it to the nearest A root and two other arpeggio tones.
Connect the A root positions on strings 6 through 1 at frets 10, 3, 10, 5, 1, and 8, adding the nearest arpeggio tone between each pair of roots.
